In this section you will find information on how to help neuropaediatric clinicians get closer to basic neuroscience and vice-versa. The challenge of our project is to build bridges between different disciplines that are normally practiced one far apart from the other.

Nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) is a rare genetic disorder caused by a defect in the machinery for the breakdown of the amino acid glycine . Above all, it is a very complex disease, since it does not affect all the patients the same way. Because of the huge differences observed in the outcome, researchers from United […]

With only 100,000 neurons, the fruit fly Drosophila Melanogaster confirms that sleep is not only good for skin and mood, but also for memory. American researchers at Florida Campus of The Scripps Research Institute published in the journal Cell that remembering and forgetting are two processes closely related, dependent on the activation or inactivation of […]

Neurons may remain immature concerning GABAergic neurotransmission in Rett syndrome Abnormal expression of cation chloride cotransporters has been found in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with Rett syndrome (RTT). This finding suggest an abnormal GABaergic transmission and neuronal maturation. According to these results, neurons of RTT patients could remain “immature” regarding GABA excitability, as it […]

The precise GABAergic calcium control plays a key role in neuronal plasticity The perisomatic inhibitory control is already known, which can control the action potential output from the post-synaptic cell. The precise level at which this is done, is for the first time described, demonstrating an exquisite compartmentalized control on the heads of dendrite […]

Connecting the growing brain network of specialised clinicians and researchers. People and labs around the world with the aim to understand the developing brain through synaptic communication.

Connecting the growing brain . informs that it has implemented security measures of a technical and organizational measures to ensure the security of their personal data and avoid its alteration , loss , treatment and / or unauthorized access , given the state of technology, nature of the data stored and the risks they are exposed, whether from human action or physical or natural means. All in accordance with the provisions of Article 9 LOPD and Royal Decree 994/1999 of June 11 , approving the Regulation of security measures for automated files containing data of a personal nature .
